It's all about who you know and there is validity to the 6 degrees of separation theory. As a recruiter I rely on candidate referrals. Most of my searches are for extremely hard (if not almost impossible) to fill positions with companies on the bleeding edge of technology. Here are some of my thoughts and ramblings... who do YOU know?

We have a new client in Far North Dallas who is looking for a Professional Services Consultant. They are a start up with just over 50 employees and actually need 3 people... one for the back web portion (VB and ASP), one for the VC++ portion (no C# yet), and one for data warehousing and business intelligence piece. Anyone with video streaming or content delivery will be a big plus.

They have a software product that provides content delivery solutions on a SaaS model. Their clients use the product for corporate communications marketing, IT support delivery, HR benefits information, learning management and sales training. The primary focus of the job is software implementation... the breakdown is 50% project work, 30% pre-sales consultant, and 20% customer liaison. Travel could go up to 50% but they are estimating 30% now. Good base salary and stock options. Great culture and work environment and the founders are very successful from their former company which they took public and sold.
